**Groups of boys can be braved at once. Chief Blackhawk can tap each kneeling Scout on their shoulder with his tomahawk as he reads his part.

Drums PlayChief Blackhawk: “Welcome Brothers and sisters, I am Chief Blackhawk of the Blackhawk Scout Tribe. We are gathered here today to pay special homage to those Cub Scouts (Boy Scouts) who took upon themselves to accept Blackhawks challenge. It is not an easy challenge, but those who were strong and able enough to sell $300 in popcorn will be braved tonight. “

(call up an individual or group of Scouts)

Chief Blackhawk: “Please kneel before me as I brave you.”

Place the tomahawk on the Scout’s shoulder

Chief Blackhawk: “You have successfully met the requirements to become eligible for braving and Chief Blackhawk would like to invite you to become a Brave to help protect and defend the Blackhawk Council Tribe. You have shown great credit upon yourself and your pack. You have worked hard and deserve the braving feather. Therefore I now call you a brave in the Blackhawk Council Tribe.

Catecholamine:
Dopamine, norepinephrine (noradrenaline) and epinephrine (adrenaline) are biologically active amines and are collectively called as Catecholamine.
* Dopamine and norepinephrine functions as neurotransmitters.
Outside the nervous system, norepinephrine and its methylated derivative, epinephrine regulates carbohydrate and lipid metabolism.
They are released from storage vehicles in the adrenal medulla in response to stress (fright, exercise, cold, and low levels of blood glucose).
They increase the degradation of glycogen, and triglycerides, as well as increase blood pressure and the output of heart.
Synthesis of catecholamine:
Catecholamine are synthesized from Tyrosine
•Tyrosine is hydroxylated by tyrosine hydroxylase (rate limiting step in the pathway) to form DOPA.
•DOPA is decarboxylated by DOPA decarboxylase (pyridoxal phosphate requiring enzyme) to form dopamine.
•Dopamine is then hydroxylated by Dopamine β-hydroxylase to give norepinephrine.
•Epinephrine is formed by N-methylation reaction using S-adenosylmethionine as a methyl donor.
Parkinson’s disease is caused due to the production of insufficient dopamine synthesis in brain…..
Degradation of catecholamines
The catecholamine is inactivated by oxidative deamination by monoamine Oxidase (MAO) and by o-methylation carried out by catechol-o-methyl-transferase (COMT) as the one-carbon donor.

9. What does a strong odour indicate about the ease with which the particles in a solid leave its surface?
A strong odour in one of any of these soilds would simply mean that the molecules leave the surface easily.
10. From your answer to question 1, which of the two types of solids seem to have the stronger forces of attraction? Explain your answer.
Camphor has a very strong odor which makes it easy for the particles in the soild leave it’s surface. The particle attraction to the soild is not very strong which means that the particles would leave the soild which then triggers a strong smell.
11. From your observations of hardness and melting points, how does the strength of van der Waals forces of attraction compare with the strength of the attractions between ions of opposite charge?
Sodium Chloride has a much stronger force of attraction to the particles because there is no evident odor and seems to have a very high melting point as oppose to camphor which has a very strong, evident smell.
12. Water is a much more polar molecule than 2-propanol. How does the polarity of the liquid seem to influence the solubility of these solids?
Water is more of a polar molecule then the given 2-propanol which allows ionic soild, sodium chloride that breaks off and becomes soluble. Camphor is not an ionic solid which means that it is not soluble in water although of the given molecular polarity.

...Elements and compounds are a result of the actions of the valence electrons. There are three types of bonds that I have learned about in the bonding comparison lab. These bonds include ionic, polar covalent, and non-polar covalent. Each of these bonds and the elementcompounds connected to them has individual solubility, conductivity, melting point, and volatility levels. The three elementcompounds that will follow are sodium chloride, sucrose, and p-dichlorobenzene.
Sodium chloride is an ionic bond. It is soluble in water, but is not soluble in heptane. Sodium chloride has a high melting point, meaning that it takes high temperatures to melt it from a solid into a liquid. When wafted, sodium chloride has a mild scent, which means that it has a moderate volatility level. Electric conductivity in sodium chloride is very strong in water, and literally non-existent in its dry, solid form.
Sucrose, with its polar covalent bond, conducts very well in water. In its solid form, it is not conductive at all. Sucrose has a low volatility, meaning it has no smell. With a medium melting point, it doesn't require much heat to melt sucrose. Sucrose is soluble in water, but is not soluble in heptane. This compound, sucrose, is commonly known as sugar.
P-dichlorobenzene is a non-polar covalent bond. Being very volatile, P-dichlorobenzene has a very strong scent when wafted....

...Elements of the Argument: "What is Poverty?"
Steve Ross Expository Writing Dr. Nancy Nester Final 10/25/96
What do you consider poverty to be? Do you have a definitive
explanation of it or do you consider it an abstract circumstance? In the
article "What is Poverty?", Jo Goodwin Parker gives her ideas on what poverty is.
First given as a speech, this article is written as an attack on human emotion.
Her use of connotative language creates many harsh images of her experiences in
a life of poverty. By using these images, Parker is capable of causing the
reader to feel many emotions and forces the reader to question his or her own
stereotypes of the poor. With the use of connotative language and the ability
to arouse emotion, Parker successfully compels the reader to examine his or her
thoughts and beliefs on who the poor are.
Parker's use of connotative language causes the reader to feel many
emotions. Of these emotions, a prominent one is guilt. Parker is capable of
making the reader feel guilty for the possessions that he or she has. For
example, she uses the phrase "You say in your clean clothes coming from your
clean house, ..."(Parker 237). This causes the reader to feel guilty for having
the opportunity to be clean when we all know that she doesn't have the same.
She calls hot water a "luxury"(Parker 237). To those living in poverty hot
water is a luxury. The unimpoverished take it...

Atoms elements and compounds
Atom-the smallest part of an element that can still be recognized as an elementElement-a substance made up of only one type of atom. An element cannot be broken down chemically into any simpler substance
Nucleus-middle of the atom, which contains protons and neutrons
Electron-tiny particle, which surrounds the nucleus with a negative charge
Compound-when two elements react and combine together which contain more than one element.
There are about 100 different elements from which all substances are made
All substances are made of atoms
Atomic structure
Proton-is a particle at the centre of the nucleus with a positive charge
Neutron-a particle at the centre of the nucleus with a neutral charge
Atomic number-the number of protons in an atom, which is equal to the number of electrons, which is also called the proton number
Mass number-the total number of particles in the nucleus of an atom so it is the number of protons plus the number of neutrons
The nucleus at the centre of the atom contains two types of particle called protons and neutrons.
Atoms are neutral because the number of protons is equal to the number of electrons and their charges are equal and opposite (proton +1 and electron -1)

This is journal entry #20 10:30 AM 8/10/2050: The riots are still raging in the streets and gas prices are $200 a gallon. It has been 15 days since we have been told that there is no more fossil fuels. Our civilization is at the tipping point; like I said there is violent riots in the streets the lights are not turning on and neither is the water. My mom tells me it’s like this because when she was a kid everyone abandoned the idea of “clean energy” because they were told that scientists figured out how to clean up the pollution. No one thought of when we were going to run out fossil fuel and now we have. We need a new source of power, a clean and unlimited reserve of energy, hydrogen.
Hydrogen is a clean and unlimited resource. Hydrogen is a completely clean resource, when used in cars it’s only emission is water vapor and heat. Hydrogen is virtually unlimited when hydrogen runs out our universe will have ended ( most likely one hundred trillion years) 100,000,000,000,000 years from now.
Hydrogen is extremely efficient, it is 3 times more efficient than gasoline. You can get 480 miles a tank with the Toyota FCHV. From coral you can make it all the way to San Diego, CA and go another 156 mi on one tank.
Some argue that hydrogen is very flammable and can explode. Those that argue this are 100% correct but it is not any more flammable than the gasoline in your car right now.
Hydrogen is only $1.80 gallon and 3 times more...
